Ronnie's POV

I hear a loud shout and lots of noise from downstairs.

2:43am.

I know that the noise is coming from the kitchen from the echo.

I push out the ladders from my room and make it onto the second floor.

Elton and Devyn were in bed.

Of course it was all the boys.

I walk down the cold marble stairs and onto the first floor.

As I step of the last step, I face the kitchen to see 4 boys eating pancakes.

I walk to the kitchen and cough to get their attention.

All there heads snap around with cheeks stuffed full of dough.

I just laugh at them.

Corey suddenly jolts and looks as if he had made the world's greatest discovery.

He grabs a plate emptying his mouth.

We all make gagging noises.

"Ah shut up" Corey laughs while walking towards me.

He hugs me and I hug him back.

He pulls away and smiles,

"Happy birthday" he says,

"Thank you for remembering" I say looking at the other boys.

They all awkwardly look at each other.

I laugh to break the silence.

"Don't worry, you aren't horrible friends and forgot. I only told Corey and Devyn" I say smiling at Corey again.

They all sigh with relief.

They all walk towards me hugging me.

"so eighteen huh?" Aaron says,

"Yeah it doesn't feel like it though" I say wondering if I should feel something.

I'm standing in a kitchen at 2 in the morning in my pyjamas with my best friends surrounded by pancakes.

What else could I ask for?

"Well I'm away back to bed" I say making my way to the stairs again.

"Night" they all say.

I climb back up the stairs and to the end of the hallway were the entrance to my room was.

Of course I didn't put the lock on and now I can't get back up.

I start to jump trying to reach the drawstring.

Giving up after failing miserably.

I slump down on the floor with my cheeks in my hands.

I see Colby at the end of the hallway and closing his bedroom door.

I get up and make my way to his door.

I knock and wait for a response.

"Come in" I hear muffled from behind the oak wood.

I open the door and it squeaks.

Colby walks out of his bathroom shirtless while brushing his teeth.

I didn't mean to but I couldn't help but let my eyes trail to his body.

His carved, perfect body.

I snap out of it when he smirks at me.

Toothpaste slobbers down his chin and he rushes to the bathroom.

I giggle and laugh at him.

I hear him rinsing out the sink and switching off the bathroom light.

He stands in front of me putting on a shirt.

I don't know what he is doing but he is making me feel some type of way tonight.

As my cheeks turn a shade of red and manage to ask what I came to ask in the first place.

"Can you come help me get the ladders down please?" I say looking down shyly.

"Sure" he says smirking.

I follow after him to the end of the hallway.

He stretches to reach the draw string.

His shirt rises up revealing that perfect body once again.

I don't even care if he catches me looking.

He pulls the drawstring down and looks the ladder to the floor.

I walk forward and kiss his cheek.

"Thank you" I whisper into his ear.

"My pleasure" he whispers back sending shivers down my back.

I make my way up the ladders and into my nice warm bed drifting off to a slumber.
